LMCs are clear that they are the formal representatives of the doctors, but it is all too easy to imagine an LMC opposing a CCG plan which could dump extra work on GPs, and the CCG arguing that it has the support of its GP members.
Visits are typically scheduled for: birth, 1 week, 2 4 weeks, and 4 6 weeks (provided by an LMC – typically a community-based midwife); and 8 10 weeks, 3 4 months, 5 7 months, 9 12 months, 15 18 months, and 2 3 years (typically provided by a Well Child nurse) [ 39].
Two hundred and fifteen studies (47%) occurred in high income countries, with 3 (1%) of these studies including at least one author from an LMC in a non-leadership role.> Using the same stratification by whether the study was conducted in a low and/or high income country, we also analyzed collaboration patterns between low and high income countries for multi-institutional studies (N = 263).
Of the remaining 201 studies, one study was conducted in an LMC setting only, with authors from more than one LMC.
Two studies were conducted exclusively in LMCs; both had at least one author from an LMC, and at least one author from an LMC in a leadership role.
Forty studies (9%) were conducted in both LMCs and high income countries; in these studies 30 (75%) had at least one author from an LMC, and 7% had at least one author from an LMC in a leadership role.
In addition, we analyzed authorship trends after stratifying by whether the study was conducted in an LMC, high income country or both.
Therefore, we implement an LMC-like spatiotemporal band-pass filtering on the photoreceptor output (Figure 1C).
Also, the inclusion of an LMC-like input stage in our model is supported by the very similar temporal characteristics of the LMC to the fly RTC.
